Plan to strengthen the security system in China to protect these happening



There were riots in Xinjiang, China. And because of that, 12 victims occurred. Criminals killed people, and police shot the criminals. According to the article, people who live in Xinjiang are mostly Muslim, and they had these happening before.
           Firstly, I feel so bad about what they did, and sorry for victims. And I hope police officers catch the rioters soon, and punish them strongly so that it will not happen again. I read that there are another violent in that city before, so I hope the security system will be strong soon.

Four dead in Washington state avalanches
By Katherine Luck | Reuters – 13 hrs ago

What happened?
*Four skiers died in ski resort
*Eight people were missing, but they are founded alive and unharmed
When?
-on Sunday
Why?
-there were two different avalanches
Where?
-near the Stevens Pass ski area in the Cascade Mountains

 I read the article, and it was about the disaster in ski resort in Washington State. According to the article, there were two different avalanches hit the ski area. I searched about the avalanche after I read this article, and it says avalanche can occur when the warm weather makes the surface of snow melt. I was so surprised that still avalanche occurs even it is end of February. I thought spring is now coming, but it still snows these days, and these bad things are happening because of snow. I feel so sorry for the victims, and I hope spring comes soon so that these disasters are gone.

          American pop singer Whitney Houston died on saturday in Los Angeles hotel. Police officers did not find the exact  reason why she died, but they think it is because of drug abuse. I feel so sorry that she died even she is only 43 years old. She was one of my favorite American pop singer, and I liked her voice and song so much. I knew that she had some drug, and alcohol problem, and those problems made me disappointed to her. Also, because of that, people’s recognition of her changed. But still, I liked her song. So it makes me so sad that I cannot listen to her music anymore.
